Writing styles of #Grover & #Proudhon are remarkably similar (not kidding!), further convincing me that #SesameStreet is an #anarchist collective, run by #muppets, in the heart of NYC
One of the positive, immediate effects of cannabis is that it frees the user from the naked pretense of authority. This is the primary reason conservatives crumple from legalization.

I thought COVID was a “hoax”. Why do Republicans now so desperately want to hang on the Title 42? To keep all of those “hoaxy” immigrants out of the country?
Oh. Right. Republicans. Why’d I ask.
Lori got offended that I used the word puke. But that's what dinner tasted like.

I saw this post from @BlackAzizAnansi that Mastodon remains an overwhelmingly white space and I can't refute that, but I'm angry that it is this way. My experience in tech is that there's no shortage of black talent or black voices, there's a shortage of black opportunity and space due to racism. I see that reflected here. I feel like if we want a #blackmastodon then we can't be passive about this, we have to be intentionally inclusive, intentionally anti-racist. It's not enough to just support.

With greater adoption of Masto comes more likelihood of running across jackasses in your feed.
Do yourself the favor of adopting the Ambercadabra Zero Strikes rule (patent pending).
Life is too short to tolerate random strangers being jerks. Mute, block, unfollow liberally and often and protect your peace on the big wild internet so you can make room for people who don't make being keyboard warriors their whole personality. Trust me that it's better this way.
So Jesus physically ascended into heaven. Doubting Thomas got schooled on the subject. The burning question for me has always been, where is he now? I mean, if he ascended physically, he must be sitting somewhere waiting to come back. Is he on the moon? Is he sitting in the Bahamas with SBF? Is he in heaven? If heaven is a physical place, then do I have to die to get there? Questions. I have a lot of questions.
I'm not sure how I feel about the possibility of a headline proclaiming:
"Piers Morgan Toot shames 'total lies' in Harry and Meghan series as he brands them 'rabid dogs'"

Jesus, if Trump can sell out on his NFTs maybe he should come up with insurrectionist NFTs for the the rubes. Hell! Even I might even pony up for a Marjorie Taylor Greene-Lantern. Or a Lauren Boebert Cat Woman, if you know what I mean😏.

…They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. - Jean-Paul Sartre 2/2
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors…1/2

There’s no mystery why news outlets are conflicted about Twitter. It’s is a monopoly with a resource – – access to key readers—that the news media needs. That’s why monopolies are bad! The media are hostages in this case not hypocrites. @monthly https://www.washingtonpost.com/media/2022/12/17/musk-twitter-journalist-suspension-media-react/

Black twitter right now reminds me of just how deeply contingent black communities — digital and physical — are upon the whims of white people.

People are nice on Mastodon, and it's a deeply weird experience to not have to brace for trolls when I click send.
